Dubrovnik, Croatia 

In 2019, K and I held our biennial “cousin camp” (extended family reunion) in Croatia.

Croatia has an amazing coast. And one of the most beautiful seaside cities, Dubrovnik, is on it.

The city’s old town is surrounded by a wall that is 1.2 miles in length and 82 feet at its maximum height. Built during the Middle Ages to prevent attacks along the Adriatic Sea, this fortress has protected the Croatian capital for centuries.

* Strolling around Loggia Square

* Taking a boat ride to the Blue Cave

* The Dubrovnik Cathedral and Treasury

* The Game of Thrones tour – silly, but fun

* Sea kayaking and snorkeling in the crystal blue waters
